[Buy/Sell/Trade / IC: Saturn Controllers]

So does anyone here need a few saturn controllers?

I'm sitting on close to 30, cleaned, tested, and whitened (they're not perfect, but good)
not even sure what to ask for these.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / WTB: IDE hard drives]

hey guys.

I find my self in need of a handful of IDE hard drives.
I need the full size 3.5" drives, but capacity isn't terribly important, as long as it's 50+GB

[General Gaming / What games did you beat in 2017?]

There's a big presence of "Playing >>>> Collecting" here, so let's back up that talk.
What games did y'all beat this year?
What system?
What'd you think?

For me:
The Bouncer (PS2) - I will never understand the hate this game gets. I love it.
Cave Story (PC) - I totally get how this kinda started the indie game thing, wonderful game
Dark Souls (PC) - Loved it, but still prefer Demon's Souls, and I don't see how Dark Souls 2 was THAT bad.
Dead Rising (360) - I knew the gameplay was fun from when it was first released, and I loved the couple playthroughs I did, but holy cats a 100% playthrough is rough.
Deja Vu (PC) - fun enough, but I doubt I'll go back to it when there's stuff like shadowgate
Doom 2016 (PC) - "That was fucking metal as fuck dude"
Freedom Plantet (PC) - levels were great fun, i hated every boss battle
Marlow Briggs and the Mask of Death (PC) - great god of war clone with a decent balance of humor v. action
Maximo (PS2) - almost an amazing game, just hindered by some cheap stuff like the ever increasing continue price and some BS enemy placement
Mega Man Legends 2 (PSX) - pretty much perfect, just some BS sections where you just get wrecked as soon as you get hit once
Postal 2 (PC) - just as cathartic as ever. pacifist playthrough was actually a good challenge, but took some fun away
Resident Evil 4 (Wii) - I really loved it until the island, then it got just a little too hard for my liking
Risk of Rain (Vita) - maybe this shouldn't go in here as I'm not sure what you'd call beating the game, but it's been a wonderful timekiller
Shadowgate (PC, macventure) - It's Deja Vu, but literally everything is done better
South Park Stick of Truth (PC) - Super mario RPG + South Park = fun RPG that's not much of a challenge, but the experience is worth it
Star Wars Jedi Knight Jedi Academy (PC) - I'm not sure it deserves all the praise it gets, but it was a fun EU romp
Zombie Army Trilogy (PC) - Really good time, makes me want to try the sniper elite games for more

[General Gaming / HD Remasters/Rereleases]

So we all know that we're firmly in the realm of remasters, but which ones are worth it and which ones blow?

For my money, the one that pops to mind is the steam rerelease of Sonic Adventure DX.
It's a retouched version of the Xbox Live Arcade version.
Which is a port of the 2003 PC release.
Which is a port of the Gamecube game.
Which is a port of the Dreamcast original.

not to mention the load of odd graphical downgrades that occurred between DC and GCN, which were all carried forward to future versions.  This includes reduced detail on buildings, a removal of water effects, and a complete change (and downgrade, IMO) of the lighting engine.

good news, there's mods to fix a lot of this stuff, but neither PC version is perfect.

another one that pops to mind in the *almost* awesome category are the Kingdom Hearts remasters for PS3 (haven't tried PS4 yet)

all the content is there, and it's the final japan-only releases, bundled in with some of the spinoff stuff. sounds great, right?
welllllllllll, first off, glitches.  I came across these somewhat frequently when I played them, but it's been a minute, maybe they've been patched.

Then there's loading times. ugh.
it doesn't have nearly the effect in #1, since there's not much in the way of active loading, but in #2 when you use certain specials (like the Drives) it will load mid-battle.
As an extra problem here, the added load times remove the free combo you'd get from activating the special, as the shockwave knocks enemies up in the air, and in the PS2 game it loaded fast enough that you'd be on your feet and ready to attack before they hit the ground.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Exile - got damn.]

so I recently started playing the original Exile on Turbo CD.
GOT DAMN.

I think I spent a good hour trying to just get through the first boss (ant lion)
couldn't take it on legit, ended up just running to a platform and doing the dive stabs from there.

I'm generally pretty good at these games, and I think there's some good in here, but I kinda feel like there's a lot of grinding in my future.

[General Gaming / Guacamelee steam code - GONE!]

yo, who wants this?
I've arleady got the game, i'll send you the steam code
first come first served.

[General Gaming / Let's talk about light gun games.]

So a mixture of talking with a member here and that goddamned game sack video has gotten me on the train of light gun games again.
What's your favorite gun? gun game? what about weird extra hardware?

example: as clodbuster pointed out in another thread, there's these things:

SCPH-1160 / SCPH-10130
which serve as an interrupt to the normal AV cables.
these serve 3 purposes -
1. the RCA jacks allow you to more easily hook up to a stereo.
2. it gets more convenient to plug in an infrequently used guncon compatible light gun that requires composite video for sync.
3. you can use a video connection other than composite (this is the real reason to use it)

additionally, if you're using SCART cables, there's these:
https://www.retrogamingcables.co.uk/sony-av-accessories/sony-PLAYSTATION-2-rgb-scart-cables/SONY-PLAYSTATION-2-PS2-CSYNC-COMPOSITE-SYNC-RGB-SCART-WTH-LIGHT-GUN-PORT

which is just a standard PS2 SCART cable with a lead for the video link right by the system plug.

Keeping with the Playstation theme, what other good light guns are there? I'm pretty much only super familiar with the guncon 1/2 Namco guns, though I know there's plenty of off brands.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / WTB: NES games & light gun stuff]

well y'all, I made the mistake of pulling out my NES again.
but I'm sitting on 2 games - Mario/duck hunt and NES open golf.

some Ideas:
Monster Party (this is a big one actually)
TMNT 1/2/3
Mega Man 2
Zoda's revenge
Metal Storm
Ninja Gaiden 1/2/3

but really, any sidescroller or adventure game would work.
I'm not terribly worried about condition, and I'd honestly prefer cart only.


Also, got a hell of an itch for some light gun stuff.
I'd need ps1 Justifier compatible guns.
on top of that, I'm looking for these games

Crypt Killer

[Off-Topic / Sharp x68000 controllers]

so I've always used a genesis -> x68k adapter for my control needs for my sharp.
but I'm getting curious, what other controllers are available?
which ones are good?

I know there's the XE-1 stick, which again, I've heard is pretty good, but it seems a bit pricey.
or should I just get a genesis compatible controller or a different adapter?

[General Gaming / Working on a couple arcade sticks - ideas?]

So I've acquired these two sticks:

https://www.amazon.com/Tekken-Tag-Tournament-Arcade-FightStick-Xbox/dp/B00AJGVGNA/ref=sr_1_54?ie=UTF8&qid=1484960757&sr=8-54&keywords=madcatz+tournament

and I'm going to mod them up to be compatible with PS4, but I figured while I'm at it, I might change out the art/buttons/balltop.
thing is, I'm drawing a complete blank on what I'd like to do.
anyone more creative than me got an idea I could work with?

and a quick summary of characters I like:
3rd strike - Urien/Q
Persona Arena - Akihiko/Chie/Junpei
MvC - Phoenix Wright/Spencer/Amaterasu
Guilty Gear - Slayer/Sol/Elphelt
Tekken - Paul/Lee/Bryan
Street Fighter II - Zangief/Cammy
Dead Or Alive - Zack/Hitomi/Mila

[General Gaming / fightcade - emulator with netplay]

well, I'm not the best fighting game player, esp some of these classics.
but I thought I'd bring up this topic to you guys since I've been playing way too much third strike lately.
anyone messed with it here?
I braved the online wilderness and was promptly removed from the gene pool

[General Gaming / Games that are still cheap - strike while the iron's hot]

So I've mentioned this in a couple other threads, but I thought I might pop something in here to see what everyone thinks.
all the retro shit - especially our beloved Turbob - has gone up quite sharply over the past couple years.
to counter this, I've jumped on to the less retro stuff, PS3, Wii, and360
and because a lot of it is still so cheap, I've ended up with quite a bit - in particular for PS3.

so let's discuss -

what are some good sub $10 games for these systems?
coming to mind I see-
PS3/360
3D dot game heroes
BulletStorm
Crysis 2/3
Earth Defense Force Insect Armageddon
Eat Lead: the return of matt hazard
Lost Planet
Metal Gear Rising
Spec Ops: the Line
Shadows of the Damned
Vanquish

Wii-
Epic Mickey
New Super Mario Bros
Sonic Colors
Wario Land Shake It
Zack & Wiki

[Console Repair/Mod Center / Pc engine coregrafx- no response (bad fuse, value/type needed)]

So my tried and true PC engine won't give me anything.
No video, no audio.
I stuff my backup pce into my beefcase and all is well.
The system has rgb and region mods, with the region mod done by a much more amateur me.
What should I be looking for when I get in there?
Also, have there been any new region mod solutions?

[General Gaming / Text based games/Visual Novels/Detective games]

So I fairly recently (september) beat the first Danganronpa on the Vita.
I remember really liking the Ace Attorney series on DS (one of the only game series I really played on it)
I'm curious what everyone else thinks about this genre/style.
Also, any recommendations? I'm gonna start up Danganronpa 2 soon enough, but I'm honestly glad they changed it up with the 3rd game.

sorry if shitposting - kinda really drunk ATM.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / WTB: GCN games]

hey y'all, I'm lookinf for a few gamecube games:

the monitor has an amp, so i can do either RCA or direct speaker wire.
thanks!

[General Gaming / So all saturn games have like tripled in price or what?]

I felt like putting together a box of crap from japan and came across this:

currently bid to $112.
what the hell? i thought it was like a $40-50 game on the high end?

[Fighting Street / Volgarr the Viking!]

So we did the bootie thing with the PCE works games.
what about Volgarr on Dreamcast?
yeah, a burn is easy enough, but why not? cds are cheap.

"This Dreamcast version of Volgarr the Viking is freeware.  You can use this software royalty-free for private and commercial purposes.

You can freely distribute copies of this software as long as no charge is raised except a reasonable fee for distribution costs, and as long as this ReadMe file is included with it."

[Off-Topic / HTPC build for my folks]

so our local cable company decided that they wanted to go all digital.
what this means for the little guy is that they want to rent us a little box that converts the signal for an extra $10/month per box.
as you might imagine, that's not really anything my parents want to deal with.
so I was thinking about doing a home theater pc build for my folks, and set it up to run Kodi (what XBMC is going by nowadays)
I really don't think they need anything crazy, but it would be nice to have something set up that can handle a 1080p video without trouble.

has anyone here done a build recently, or have any input on something prebuilt that would be worth the time/money to set up?

[Off-Topic / Any turboheads in CO?]

I'm planning a trip out to visit a certain member here towards the end of november/early december.
thought I'd ask if there were any other members around that might want to get together and grab a few beers.

[Fighting Street / burnout thread]

so i know several former collectors who have been burned/burned out on the whole retro gaming thing, but I'd like to hear the forum's opinion here.
myself included.
i recently sold nearly all of my genny/snes/n64 stuff, along with some chunks of the rest of my library.
BUT

i don't miss it.
at all.

i feel like too much of my life has been defined my my affinity for retro games over the past 5 years or so.
honestly, it's kind of freeing.
i have no less appreciation for the old stuff, but i can always go back and play that on my pc.

plus, even aside from the material tie downs, I no longer have any motivation to deal with the collectard crowd.

am I alone here?

[General Gaming / Raffle: Metal Slug 3 xbox]

yeah, I'm reraffling it, sue me.
I ended up getting the steam version and that suits me just fine.

so I'm drawing on the 7th.

entrants:

Medic_wheat
Xelewhateverthefuckijustcallhimxele

[General Gaming / XPC-4 / XRGB]

so, wheres the best place to buy these?
also, I know that the xrgb units use JP scart, is there a converter i can buy so i can use the Euro cables i've already got, or am i going to have to buy all new cables?

[Buy/Sell/Trade / WTB: 3 n64 games. almost done.]

well, I've been working away at this for about 4 years now and the end is in sight.
I have 3 games left to go.
loose or complete doesn't matter to me, but i do want the front labels to be nice.
so here's my list:

battletanx
bust a move 99
olympic hockey 98

additionally, i'm looking for the following variant carts:
Army Men Sarges Heroes 2 (grey cart)
Rugrats In Paris (grey cart)
Scooby Doo Classic Creep Capers (black cart)
Zelda OoT (Gold cart)

[Off-Topic / Man, what the hell happened?]

I stop coming regularly for a while, and suddenly I'm all out of the loop.
dafuq guys.
fill me in.

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / A realistic approach - Community driven pressed CDs]

So, Tobias has started with this whole PC engine boxset business.
conveniently enough, Google helped me find several places online that can do commercial pressings of CDs, along with many packaging options.
I know this has been discussed before (almost endlessly so), but who would be interested in getting some repros pressed? What games?

I'd be willing to take the duty of dealing with whatever company, as well as all the money handling.

here's the guidelines I'm thinking
1. If using some kind of patch (Ys IV dub, for example), we must get permission from the patch creator, and follow whatever terms they wish.
2. I'm not looking to make much money, if at all. These would be essentially cost + shipping + ~$1-2 for my time.


So my ideas for games-
Ys IV w/ patch(my big pick)
Dracula X w/ patch
pretty much any of the crazy high $$$ games (DEII, for example)

[Buy/Sell/Trade / WTS: more of my shit that you probably don't want. WTB/T: Sega CD/Saturn games]

okay, i'm still offloading stuff, i haven't bothered to price it just yet, but i'll let you guys have the first go, so shoot me an offer:






As far as trades, i'm down, but i'm gonna be kinda picky about the titles i'd want:

Sega CD
Sonic CD
Robo Aleste
Terminator

Saturn
Burning Rangers
Panzer Dragoon
Panzer Dragoon Saga (lol)

Dreamcast - anything i don't have marked here:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AiaZNsopVreAdE9OTFZlMTMwaVBEaDF3UnhaVk9yZHc&usp=drive_web#gid=0

N64 - the games i don't have marked here, loose is fine:
http://nintendoage.com/index.cfm?FuseAction=Collection.View&clId=62458


It's also pretty likely that i'll be adding more to this soon, so check back

[Off-Topic / Keychains]

so, as i've obtained more and more stuff, i find that i have way too many keys to put comfortably in my pocket.
so i need keychains, specifically, i'm looking for ones to go with my arcade cabs.
any suggestions, i've got an SNK cab, a namco cab, and a sega cab.

a quick search on ebay/amazon yielded disappointing results.

[Buy/Sell/Trade / Broke as hoes! help me out, yo.]

well my car is messed up, and i don't want to fix it at this point, i'd rather just replace it.
but in order to do that, some stuff has to go!

so here's what i'm parting with, shipping is included!
as always i'm open to offers, and if you've got any questions, feel free to PM.
